Since it was established in 1953 Baruffaldi has created a solid reputation at an international level as a manufacturer of extrusion tools and extrusion lines for plastics, automatic in-line and off-line machines for PVC profiles, cable and installation ducts for the electrical industry as well as special machines and turnkey projects. One of its flagships is its wide range of assembling machines for PVC and aluminum roller shutters. This includes a rich variety of solutions for the most different production needs.
For the roller shutter systems all started by studying special high productivity in line machines dedicated to the production of roller shutters i.e. Combiroll and 6.5mt long slat packs i.e. Combipack, in single and dual strand, with productivity up to 2 x 15m/min. These are automatic modular machines complete with punching, interlocking, cutting and assembly units, also available in the pneumatic version and with brushless motors for high performance.
In the course of the last decade, the company completed their automatic roller shutter system range with Pin Inserters and Cap Inserters. This new generation of machines represents the off line evolution of the traditional Combiroll inline technology. They come with different degrees of automation, to meet the production needs of the customers and can be used for both PVC and roller shutter profiles.
Pin Inserters and cap inserters are off-line systems especially designed to produce PVC and aluminum roller shutters starting form 6,5 meter long slat packs or from profiles already cut to length, thanks to the modularity of the Baruffaldi systems. Pin inserters are equipped with a pin interlocking unit, whereas cap inserters are equipped with two interlocking units that insert plastic caps at both profile ends. Both plants can process all different profile geometries thanks to the flexibility of the Baruffaldi system.
The last cap inserter named CAP-SP, where SP means special, is a customized machine that can process both PVC and aluminum roller shutter profiles and represents the results of the efforts of Baruffaldi's R&D team to design a high performance and automated solution only for the cap insertion phase. In the latest versions of PINCO 6.5 for PVC and aluminum profiles, the company enriched the plant configuration with a built-in computer and a labelling unit that interfaces with the customer manufacturing system.
Baruffaldi exhibits at the forthcoming exhibition R+T, the world's leading trade fair for roller shutters and sun protection that takes place in Stuttgart/Germany from 27th February to 3rd March 2018.
